Burundi vs Mauritania Prediction and Betting Tips | June 10th 2025
Burundi will play host to Mauritania at Stade El Bachir in a friendly match on Tuesday. Both teams will use this meeting to assess ahead of the World Cup qualifiers.
Burundi vs Mauritania Preview
Burundi come into this match on the back of a 5-0 crushing of Seychelles in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. It was their third outing so far this year, marked by one win and two defeats. The hosts will be looking to test new players and hopefully put their house in order following four losses in their last five clashes.
The Swallows could make a statement in Group F of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying, as they remain a side to reckon with. They sit third on 10 points, six and five points behind first-placed Cote d’Ivoire (16) and second-placed Gabon (15) respectively. Burundi and Mauritania’s last meeting dates back to November 2020, with the hosts winning 3-2.
Mauritania come into this game on the back of a 2-0 home defeat against DR Congo in FIFA World Cup qualifying. It was their second home setback in five matches, but like Burundi, the visitors boast just one win in their last five matches. Their motivation for this friendly is quite unclear, considering their WC qualifying performance.
Al-Murabitun will face Togo next in the qualifiers set for September. They sit at the bottom of Group B with two points, trailing the top spot by 11 points. They don’t appear to be pushing for a historic World Cup qualification. However, they could plan to use this game to assess their strengths and weaknesses for their future rebuild.
